There would be no Taskmaster without Frank. Alex has said that they had trouble getting a cast for the first season, but Frank is so respected in British comedy that he gave the show the clout it needed when he signed on.
Yes, Frank was the main reason I watched the show from the start because I’ve been a huge fan of his ever since Fantasy Football. He was definitely the biggest name in the 1st series and gave it immediate kudos.
@@njuta This might sound quite random, but this is the first time I've read/heard the word "simile", as English is my second language. Now "facsimile" makes more sense to me.
Frank was so lovely! One of the contestants I wish would be on the show again somehow. I think my favorite moment from him was him discovering how to score points by touching his head. He looked like he'd seen God.
Frank looking at his broken egg and Josh having the biggest panic attack when he threw the egg to miss his paper pillow was just comedy gold! the freeze frame!
Yes finally!!! but his best moments are literally everything tho, from the excellent alphabet meal, the excellent horse painting, and the hilarious blooper video, his solutions are ones I usually enjoyed the most!
Should we be worried by the fact that the little jingles between bits sound similar to the theme from Dexter, combined with the fact that there seems to always be a room covered in plastic wrap?
Best reverse video I've seen is the Korbut flip played in reverse. She starts with this odd pose, then with hardly any windup leaps several meters into the air onto a bar 😅
I'll never understand why in the egg challenge, no one used the HUGE PILLOWS that were out there on the lawn and surely would have protected the eggs when they landed on them...
I really like Frank, but IMHO he's not at his best in clips. Frank is an incredibly sharp comedian, and many of his greatest moments were one-liners reacting to other people. You have to watch the full episode to get that.

And then 5 years later the show kept going on and on and getting better up until yesterday when Taskmaster finally won a BAFTA. Absolutely brilliant
Also, Frank and overral the season 1 roster is still one of my favorites. Everyone there was amazing, especially Frank and Tim

@@kisbie "For these guys that's a lot of money" with the ring had me rolling on that prize task.
i love the way you explain it with everyday and modern words, easy to understand and appreciate 👍
Genuinely felt sorry for Frank when he discovered the egg was broken
Me too ):
As he was walking away he looked like a divorced father who also found out he did not get custody for the kids.
@@EnycmaPie omigod, it was heartbreaking enough without the elaborate simile 😭

@@dirk9787 that's neat! it's not a word used a lot... but it's more accurate than metaphor.
When Frank chased after a one-year old to high-five, I couldn’t stop laughing at that challenge XD

Which task/episode was this by chance?
NightVale_Intern team task to score 11points I think?
@@AlwaysAPotterhead Episode 4 i think
They need to start using older contestants again.... They season 15 group was the worst.
Anyone else dream of an “every time Alex breaks/ gets abused” compilation of sorts?
Frank looking at his broken egg and Josh having the biggest panic attack when he threw the egg to miss his paper pillow was just comedy gold! the freeze frame!
Aww I miss Fred. We should have a Fred compilation lol
That's really kind thanks
@@fredh1720 Sounds good to me! Lmao
Omg they need to make this
They did just post a Fred compilation, check recent uploads.
Fred the Swede experiencing the timeless art of seduction.
Yes finally!!! but his best moments are literally everything tho, from the excellent alphabet meal, the excellent horse painting, and the hilarious blooper video, his solutions are ones I usually enjoyed the most!
"With every video you play, mine looks WORSE."
Finally this great man gets his own compiliation. I loved him so much
Frank lamenting his reverse film will always be one of my favorite TM moments
The Pie Whisperer himself!
Yes, the minty Tipp-Ex pie.
Mystic frank
That bulbous vein joke of frank’s was once part of his stage show. The punchline being - that’s the first time the a40 has ever met the m25
Can we please get Alex Hornes best moments?
I like how with Frank's best moments, the first half of the video is occasions where he completely messed up and did the worst possible.
HOW could you not include, "In fact, I think I'll take first [prize]. What was it, 12 grand? I've probably got that on me!" I died 😂.
Brilliant! The tears bit had me, well, in tears. 🤣
Frank and the Swede! One of the most unnecessarily homoerotic things on TM ever! 😂😂😂😂😂
How I wish there was footage of Frank watching Baddiel’s performance on Taskmaster.
Thant would be hilarious 😂
Kezia Irene David was so bad I was expecting Frank to announce he was forming a double act with Rob Newman.
I like how Series 1 was filmed. It looked a bit more... Cinematic. Could just be my eyes.
In series 1, the panel stuff was filmed in an actual theatre. Since series 2, it’s been in a TV studio, on a set designed to resemble that theatre.
@@kisbie Wow! I had no idea. That would explain why they moved the prizes to the stage.
They don’t pay their Swedes enough.
And where was Frank's task to get the boulder as far away as possible? That, for me, was his best bit!

Ive never noticed that before XD

I wonder which Frank thinks is the worst: Push-Up and Away, the Ballet Link, or the Brits.
Frank is a class act.
You know what we need? Alex Horne's best Taskmaster Moments.
Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk.
I love Frank! Also, he's a HUGE Elvis Fan! Makes me love him even more!
Legend
The Swedish guy was pretty cute ngl
Frank will forever be the pie wisperer
Did they tell Fred the task before he agreed to do it? Aye yi yi! lol
Did anybody notice the picture in the hallway of Greg holidng a fish at 42seconds 🤣🤣
Sorry Frank, but push up and away is no where near the glory that is tree wizard
His pie task was so funny
I miss Fred.
The Swedish man is called Fred.
King
Perfect!
Can someone tell me why this video is blocked in the UK?
Had to load up a VPN and pretend to be a Yank to watch this!
this is the only reason i live in the uk
I'll never understand why in the egg challenge, no one used the HUGE PILLOWS that were out there on the lawn and surely would have protected the eggs when they landed on them...
Because they could only use the stuff that was on the table
@@ElineBlueEyes True but then they could just have wrapped the egg in paper and made it land there...
I thought the Swedish person wasn't going to speak English that would have been a good wee twist
Would be heard to find a Swede his age that doesnt speak English
Bring on series 10
I still think season 1 was the best season.
the captions “qriket“ hahahahhaha
4:49 :'(

Bit Late but thanks anyway 😜
7:40 Undrar vem svensken är? Och hur han fick vara med i Taskmaster? Är det någon som vet?
Who on earth is this
He kinda looks like Sauli Niinistö
